TPO-46 - Integrated Writing Task In the United States, medical information about patients traditionally has been recorded and stored on paper forms. However, there are efforts to persuade doctors to adopt electronic medical record systems in which informa

The passage proposes three benefits of replacing patients' paper-based records with those in electronic format. Unfortunately, all of these statements are contradicted by the lecture.

Firstly, the lecturer argues that using electronic records cannot lower the costs as much as the passage claims. In the article, establishing a record database could enable us to reduce our expenditures on storage and transportation, whereas the lecture weakens the significance of that new format by pointing out that paper-based records cannot be fully abandoned for some reasons, like backup and legal needs.

Secondly, the speaker asserts that medical errors are still likely to happen even we use electronic records. As shown in the article, doctors can make fewer mistakes thanks to the advanced form. By contrast, the lecture introduces the fact that the record of a patient is usually hand-written by a doctor then typed into the database by a staff, which demonstrates that the possibility of errors is not reduced.

Thirdly, the lecture opposes the passage's view that records in electronic form will facilitate medical research by indicating that such research is restricted by the laws in America, which are designed to protect people's privacy. Conversely, the passage overstates its benefits but avoids its low practicalities.

In short, all the advantages of having records in electronic forms provided by the passage are refuted by the specific reasons and examples in the lecture.
